US capitalism is based on the government taking land away from people that aren't developing, and giving it to new owners though.
That's the argument people give for why it's ok for the US to have taken land from the indigenous peoples at least. I think it's reasonable for the government to seize any property that has only been used for collecting rents within some timespan, and reallocate it to somebody who wants to make actual use of the land
